Announcing Event : Sunday Snacks - Chaats/Indian Street Foods

Sunday Snacks - Chaats/Indian Street Food

Chaats.. !! There is no one thing that comes to my mind .. when I hear the word.. A whole lot of them do... :) Standing on the street side in India and eating up the pani puris as fast as I can.. The hot tava with Alu tikkis.. and Ragda being made.. the "bandiwala" assembling.. some delicious Bhel puri.. Or the family.. waiting in their car for the to-go of the Pav Bhaji.. All these scenes and smells come to my mind.. and makes me want to go to India right now.. and enjoy them all.. :) Well.. I wish I could plan such a trip.. so often as I feel like.. But, whenever I do go.. I make sure I visit all my favorite "Chaat hangouts" and enjoy to my heart's desire..

So, will be this next edition's theme - "Sunday Snacks -Chaats/Indian Street Food". Chaats are always great for a nice afternoon snack. Some are really easy to put together and some are a longer process.. whatever it is, I have not eaten a chaat that I didnt love :) When I was in India, I would often eat at the street side mobile chaat shop/carts.. which are everywhere in Hyderabad. During a shopping trip they always came to my rescue for not just snack but lunch and dinner too .. :) I miss all that being here in the US.. I hope to gather all the chaats in one roundup, so that all those "Chaat Lovers" out there can find this useful.. Send in all your favorite chaat recipes..
